REACH – digital treatment and prevention – David Moulaee Conradsson's research group

Our research focuses on creating the conditions for more equitable health through digital interventions and applications, from development to evaluation.

Research focus

REACH - Researching and Evaulating Accessible digital Care for Health

Our research aims to improve access to healthcare and promote health equity through the development and evaluation of digital services for treatment and prevention. We focus particularly on lifestyle interventions, such as the promotion of physical activity, with a special emphasis on individuals living with neurological conditions or injuries.

We explore the needs for digital interventions among people with diseases or injuries and their families, as well as the use, accessibility, and satisfaction with such services. These issues are examined from individual, group, and societal perspectives, while also considering the broader implications for healthcare efficiency and the cost-effectiveness of new interventions.

We are strongly committed to cross-sectoral collaboration—across academia, healthcare, and industry—and our work is grounded in close partnerships with stakeholders and representatives from patient communities to ensure that digital interventions are relevant, accessible, and fit for purpose.

Projects

mHealth delivered physical activity after stroke or transient ischemic attack – development and feasibility

The overall aim is to develop and test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of mHealth delivered physical activity among individuals post-stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). The development is carried out in collaboration with individuals who have experienced stroke or TIA, physiotherapists, patient organizations, and the MedTech industry.

mHealth delivered physical activity after stroke or transient ischemic attack – development and feasibility

"One size” fits no one: precision-based digital promotion of physical activity after stroke or transient ischemic attack – a multicenter adaptive intervention

This multicenter study evaluates a personalized mHealth intervention designed to support people after stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) in becoming more physically active and improving their health. The project also assesses the intervention’s impact on secondary stroke complications and includes a cost-effectiveness evaluation to guide future implementation.
